The best way to live a fit and happy life despite this daily inconvenience, is to boost your natural immunity, and including vitamin C rich foods in your diet is one way of achieving this through healthy lemon coriander soup.
That’s all the more reason to enjoy this delicious lemon and coriander soup made with Vitamin C rich ingredients like lemon, coriander, carrots and cabbage.
The vegetable stock used in this recipe also helps boost vitamin C levels of each lemon and coriander soup bowlful. Vitamin C is also helpful in relieving cold and cough, so enjoy this comforting soup piping hot on days you feel down, or any cool winter’s day for that matter.
I would like to suggest some tips to make the perfect lemon coriander soup recipe. 1. There is no need to be so specific about the vegetables you add to the stock. Onions, carrots and celery are the basic flavor-imparting agents for your soup. You can combine them with whatever is easily available like garlic, mushrooms, bell peppers or fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, rosemary and leek. Avoid starchy vegetables as they tend to make the stock cloudy. 2. Never add the coriander while the lemon and coriander soup is boiling and always add the coriander just before serving as it tends to become dark.
